College Snow Day Activities

"A snow day literally and figuratively falls from the sky—unbidden—and seems like a thing of wonder." - Susan Orlean

Yes, believe or not, college snow days are a thing! It's the best thing to find out when you have an 8 am class or a test that you weren't completely prepared for. Now you get extra sleep, extra time to study, and extra time to relax. It's a fantastic day in every college students life. Waking up to that email saying classes are cancelled is the greatest thing ever. And the looking outside to see the field of white snow is the other greatest pert of the day. It makes us feel like children again. Take us back to waking up hearing the school was cancelled and you got the whole day to hangout with all your friends. It leaves you with so many different possibilities for the day.

1) Photoshoot

When you're bored and have nothing else to do, go do a photoshoot with your friends in the fresh new snow. Sure it might get cold but it'll be great way to get Instagram posts and memories with your friends. It's also a great way to go exploring your campus and seeing new things. It's so much fun to just run around and act insane with your friends.

2) Movie Night

Now who doesn't love a movie night? Especially a movie night with friends and hot coco. It's a great way to get warm. To just sit under blankets and be cozy and drink the warm hot coco, it's a great way to relax and not worry about school for one day. And you can watch as many movies as you want to. You could watch disney movies, or action movies, or romance movies. You can watch all of them if you really want to. The possibilities for movie night are endless. Especially if you need to warm up after being outside.

3) Sledding!!

Time to steal the cafeteria trays and hit the closest hill on campus! This is an unspoken rule across all campus' when snow has graced our campus. As college students, we don't really think to bring sleds to school as a necessity. That's why we use makeshift sleds. Some of us use trays, some freeze towels and use those, and then others use container tops. It's a great way to go back into our childhood and feel the nostalgia of sledding.

4) Cooking Party

This is a great excuse to break out the cooking manual and make some great stuff. Now you can divulge in so much food. It's nice to eat everything on a lazy snow day, especially if you and your friends made it yourself.

Snow days are the greatest part of school in the winter time. You can do anything and everything on snow days. It's the greatest part of living in the north and have the ability of snow falling from the sky. Snow days are everyones favorite days to have.

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right? I mean I went through four years of tough classes and serious self-searching (and crying). What I found overall was Senioritis sneaking up on me.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.

Regardless of whether or not you admit this happens, here are 13 thoughts every student has during lecture:
